Students can use a planner for many reasons. Some use them to remember meetings and schedule classes, birthdays, events and work shifts. However, some students might not know where to start with a new planner, so here are some tips to get started.
Make a color code to organize the different items written in the planner.
On the month-long calendar, mark quizzes, tests, exams, major events and birthdays. Each should be a different color, in accordance with the code you’ve made.
Pages that have the month separated by week should help organize classes and assignments using a color system as well.
At the end of every planner are some notes pages. These can be used to write little reminders or to-do lists.
There are typically information or contact pages that help keep phone numbers, passwords or other important information in either the back or the front of your planner.
The first page should have your personal contact information in case your planner gets misplaced.
Add photos around the cover using double-sided Scotch Tape to personalize it.
